# SatclockRS41

This was an experiment to see if a ~100mW RS41 could bounce off a
linear AMSAT -- as a desperation recovery method. To be sensible and
good-operator about it, it uses orbital prediction code I wrote >20
years ago to find when a Linear bird is overhead.

I was told off for even thinking it, but the guy who said that then
went off to score Twitter upvotes by doing it himself :p .. A SatNOGS
receiver in Queensland heard our attempts from Newcastle and Adelaide.

VK5QI mentioned the frequency bands for the modes used (CW, SSB, etc.)
in the linears tends to be rather tight. If putting this back into
action again, doppler calculations should adjust the tx frequency to
keep things in-band.

Again, the original code came from the RS41HUP project. I provide no
apologies for reformatting the source to GNU indentation standards, as
I use Emacs.

Bulk of the RS41HUP and my prediction code is GPLv2. The STM stuff is
non-Copyleft.
